Overview
In Sanka, objects are fundamental components of your modules, representing data categories like products, customers, or orders.
Object properties are the fields or attributes that define the characteristics of these objects. For example, a "Customer" object might have properties such as "Name," "Email," and "Phone Number."
This guide provides a detailed walkthrough of creating and editing object properties to customize your Sanka workspace according to your business needs.
Process to Create and Edit Object Properties
Access Object Management page
1: Access the Object Management page by clicking Workspace Management button and select Object Manager.
2: In this page, you will see the list of all objects available in your workspace.
Add a New Property to the Selected Object
3: Locate the object you want to edit. In this case, we will choose Items object. Click on the object name to open its default properties and configuration page.
4: Click the Add New Property button.
5: Fill in the required details for the new property:
- Property Name: Enter a descriptive name for the field (e.g., "SKU," "Discount Rate").
- Property Type: Choose the data type, such as text, number, date, dropdown, or choice.
6: For example, we will use Choice type. Once you select it, new fields will show up. Filling the Label and Value will be required for Choice type to be working. To show more choices field, click on Add Choice button.
